No longer at this location. Unsure if they have opened elsewhere.
Shwing is a small western restaurant in Apgujeong that specializes in hot wings. In addition to their hallmark wings, they also serve up burgers, fries, tater tots, and salads.
They have a bunch of different kinds of wings, like honey/garlic, BBQ, mild, hot, super pro hot, and Krazy Korean hot.
As far as hot wings in Korea go, their prices are reasonable. They usually have specials such as "all-you-can-eat" wings for 15,000 Won. The only catch is that you have to eat what you order, otherwise, you'll be charged for the wings that you don't finish.

"Krazy Korean is their stupid-hot flavor. For foreigners who love spicy food and are tired of Koreans wondering if they should water down the buldak for you, because they're worried that foreigners are not used to that kind of potency, you'll like this. When I ordered 10 Krazy Korean wings, she told me that they were 'dangerous'. I brushed this off as the usual, "are you sure that you can handle that kind of heat? Remember, you're a foreigner." After getting through the 5th one, I realized that I just got my ass kicked by some wings. My buddy had to go for a walk to get over eating 2. Despite Korea being renowned for its spicy food, the Krazy Korean wings are, without a doubt, the most potent things that I've ever eaten in Korea".

[edit] Location
The best way to approach this is from either the north or east Rodeo Arch. From either arch, walk underneath and down the main street until you get to an L intersection, with a small side road continuing west (that would be continuing straight, if you are coming from the east arch, or turn right, if you coming from the north arch.) You'll know that you are in the right area, if you spot a 7-11 on the left hand side. Looking at the businesses on the right, you should see the Shwing sign.
